Base Types
The ‘Average cost’ as listed, is for a medium Human-sized being. Also, due to the modified thickness due to the size difference in the armor, the final protection value will vary. The base cost will be modified based on the size of the wearer, as follows:
Small: Bampu, Batserai, etc. ½ cost, 90% final armor value. (Round down) +5% enchantments. (Round up)
Medium: Human sized. x1 cost & final armor value.
Large: Larger Humanoid size, or smaller members of a large race. x1½ cost.
Extra Large: Be'Atsta, Dorogo, etc. x2 cost, +10% final armor value. (Round up) 90% enchantments. (Round down)
K'Loffai sized armor is x2½ cost, and +25% final armor value. (Round up) & 85% enchantments. (Round down) Nashee sized is ¼ cost, 75% final armor value. (Round down) & +10% Enchantments. (Round up)
(Notice the enchanment slot adjustment for armor types. The heavier the armor is, the less enchantment it will be able to receive since it's a much larger object, and thus harder to manipulate magickally.) "Partial Carapace" armor and higher come with helmets.
